The Regent Abbess' Christmas Message

Blessings At Christmas

from the

Regent Abbess

Your heart for the message of the Grace and Love of Jesus Christ is such a welcome contrast in a world of so much strive. Thank you for always letting God’s Heart shine through you.

“... the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” (John 1:15)

Greetings, to my family in the Order of The Faithful Women. 

I thank God for giving us the strength to endure a very challenging year, with the ups and downs, and joy with measured sadness. However, the Light of Christ still shines amidst the darkness of this world, and the darkness has not overcome this Light. For this cause we have this Joy that’s unspeakable and full of glory, as we get ready to celebrate an unusual Christmas. It is unusual because we cannot celebrate with all the people that we are accustom sharing Christmas

with. However, we will celebrate because no matter what is happening in this world, we will join the angels in song and praises to the birth of our Messiah.

I am encouraging my Family of Faithful Sisters, Mothers, and Mothers Superior to keep trusting our Lord and Savoir Jesus Christ. Continue to trust His divine will for us.

My sincere pray for each of you is for us to remain a people of faith and joy, that rejoices in the Light of hope that Christmas brings. This Light truly shines in a world full of darkness, and this Light must penetrate our hearts. We are called to be the Light of Jesus in this world.

Serving as the Regent Abbess of the Order of The Faithful Women with clergy and non-clergy membership, under the Spiritual Baptist Church of Canada, I’m taking this opportunity to wish you all, both current and forthcoming, a very Merry and Holy Christmas. And with our faith and trust in the True and Living God a prosperous and bless 2026

“For the Lord God is a sun and shield; the Lord will give grace and glory; no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly.” Psalm 84:11

MERRY CHRISTMAS & HAPPY NEW YEAR...BLESSINGS

May God Bless & Preserve you all,
